Speaking of competitive Z's...
Have you guys seen the latest work Chris Forsberg has been doing with his Formula D competition car. Last edited by MaysEffect; 03-25-2018 at 03:30 AM. |

The VC-Turbo technology is already production ready for the 2019 Altima...
I think the VC-Turbo will be a differentiator for the next gen Z's performance on the track when coupled with AWD and direct injection. Area under the power curve makes a huge difference compared to peak power. https://www.nissanusa.com/cars/2019-altima/ |

Grain of salt speculation and rendering... NOPE. I doubt the car will look like this.

That thing better start at $25,000.
DID they HAVE to go with the FLOATING roof??? Again!!! It better be as light as a FRS with 300+hp GM goes to the forums for their sports cars. Porsche goes Ford goes Mercedes goes... Damn even HYUNDAI goes the forums!!! Where TF is NISSAN in our forum??? Oh that's right... the customer base doesn't matter!! People will always buy Nissans so why care what we think?

All they hadda do was...
Lighten the chassis with higher tensile steel and lighter materials. Stretch out the wheelbase to 102.9" Design the trunk to 9 cu ft. Ride height 51" Nismo 50" Bubble out the fender flavors in the front. Box them out in the back with a hint of round. Get that aerial coke bottle look. Modernize the interior. Evolve the current Nismo bumper to be the standard Z bumper. Redesign a whole new Nismo bumper. Embolden the side glass styling. Take the q60 engine n work on it to be loud. DCT And you're done. New Z. Oh, new head and tailights
